Members Dawn Posted July 9, 2006 Members Posted July 9, 2006 Looking into buying a reasonable priced accoustic to write music and practice new tunes in band. Also needs to be stage worthy since we do some material that requires accoustic guitar. Anybody own this guitar and can tell me the pros and cons? Other suggestions in this price range would be appreciate also. I'm looking for a really full sounding guitar with equal tone throughout the fretboard. Was also checking out the Taylor Big Baby and noticed it had an ebony fretboard...yummy! Gabriel
Members theGOOCH Posted July 9, 2006 Members Posted July 9, 2006 I've played the Big Baby and it sounds great. It's smaller than a traditional dreadnought, but just slightly. I liked the Taylor 110 better, but its a couple hundred more
Members Dawn Posted July 9, 2006 Author Members Posted July 9, 2006 Well I made my decision today. Went to my local store, tried out a bunch of Martins, Taylors, Tacomas and Takaminies and ended up with an Epihpnone Masterbuilt AJ500M. Damn this thing sounded better than anything there below the $1500.00 price range. Very impressed. Plays great, the sound is awsome, and the neck just feels right. Pretty happy guy right now

Pretty happy guy right now I got a Masterbilt DR-500R two days ago. I feel the same way about it.

Yeah, the more I'm playing this git the more I'm falling in love with it. Such a WARM sound....man! The Masterbilt Series really is a piece of work!
